this doesn't go away

Thoughts echo in the silence, shadows dance in my mind, Memories like a virus, no cure that I can find. Chasing dreams in the twilight, but darkness creeps in sight, Every step that I take feels like I'm losing the fight. Ghosts of the past linger, they whisper my name, Haunted by the choices, I’m trapped in this game. Time's a thief in the night, stealing moments I crave, But the weight of regret feels like a wave I can't brave. Lessons wrapped in anguish, each scar tells a tale, Navigating through storms, trying hard not to fail. Searching for the answers, they slip through my grasp, In a world of distractions, I'm lost in the past. But I rise with the dawn, though the shadows remain, Facing demons head-on, embracing the pain. This journey's a cycle, I’m caught in the fray, Still I’m fighting for peace, 'cause this just don’t go away. In the shadows where the echoes play, Memories linger, they just won't decay, Chasing dreams that are fading gray, Every step feels like a price to pay. Haunted by the choices made, In a maze where the light betrayed, Thoughts collide like a grand parade, Searching for peace in the plans we laid. Time's a thief, it don’t delay, Caught in cycles, like night to day, Wounds that heal, but they leave a sway, Carrying weight that won't drift away. Reflections deep in the mirror's gaze, Finding truth in the foggy haze, Life's a script, but it’s not a play, This just don’t go away, no matter what they say.
